Nonuniqueness in a minimal model for cell motility by Gallimore, L, Whiteley, J, Waters, S, King, J, Oliver, J

“…We present stability analyses that show that an asymmetric perturbation is required to cause a spatially uniform, stationary strip of cytoplasm to move, which is relevant to cell polarization. Our numerical simulations identify qualitatively distinct families of travelling–wave solution that co–exist at certain parameter values. …”
